College Students on the Autism Spectrum:
Learning to Succeed on Your Own?
Meet Your Goals!
Did you struggle academically last year?
Or socially?
Or just with being on your own?
Are you a new college student, not sure what to do now?
Are you just starting college?
Figuring out how to be independent from your parents, but still be connected?
Still struggling with transitioning to adulthood and independence?
Short term therapy can help!
College is a great experience, but it can be very challenging. For those with Asperger's, autism, ASDs, or ADHD, college is a huge change from high school. Academics, social life, roommates, dating, making friends, and just figuring out how to manage all the details of college life can be tough. Mom and Dad can help, but you're growing up now. You might need something more than your parents.
Try therapy now!

Therapy doesn't have to be long term, or about re-examining every aspect of your childhood. We can accomplish a lot in just a short time.
You can learn practical life skills for college.
Things like:
How do you juggle all the demands on your time?
How can you be more organized?
How can you start dating?
How can you make more friends?
How can you get along with your difficult roommates?
How can you manage your moods, like anxiety, worries, sadness, depression, loneliness?
When should you ask your parents, and when should you try to figure it out on your own?
How else can you get help when you need it?
How do you get from student to adult??
Let's work together, and make a plan now, so this is the best school year ever.
